If i have to read one more "It isn't this. It's this" My head will explode. That phrase is the real singularity

To be fair I felt that way about regular, human written headlines long before Ai.

"It worked, until it didnt." "It was beautiful, until it wasn't"

I'd like to know how many comments over here are written using similar means. I can't be bothered to get enthusiastic about articles written by LLMs, and I'm surprised so many people in the comments here are delighted by the article.

"Here's the thing nobody tells you", "here's the part that should unsettle you"…

  • And section titles.

    The X

    The Y

    The Z

    The Problem

    The Process

    It drives me mad

    And all the seemingly *random bolding* to emphasizea *random shit*

You’d be shocked at the amount of traction pure unabated slop gets here. HN is more winnowing chaff from wheat than anything else

Came here to say this. Pure slop, wtf is everyone going on about? Are they all LLMs too?

  • Someone mentioned mass-psychosis a while ago. I feel the same.

    What's isn't a singularly but a zombie apocalypse.

It's not the phrase, but the accelerating memetic reproduction of the phrase that is the true singularity. /s
